Bio

Hello! My name is Nick, and I am a tutor by profession with over 15 years of experience tutoring nearly all K-12 subjects. While I have been out of school for some time now, I dedicate much of my free time to learning about new topics that interest me. I try to impart this love of learning on each and every student that I mentor, as I believe the pursuit of knowledge to be the greatest pursuit in life. It has been a blessing to be able to do what I love!

Hello! My name is Nick, and I am a tutor by profession with over 15 years of experience tutoring nearly all K-12 subjects. While I have been out of school for some time now, I dedicate much of my free time to learning about new topics that interest me. I try to impart this love of learning on each and every student that I mentor, as I believe the pursuit of knowledge to be the greatest pursuit in life. It has been a blessing to be able to do what I love!

It is always my goal to provide the most personalized tutoring experience possible, with each lesson meticulously planned and tailored to the specific needs and goals of the student and their parents. I’ve conducted extensive research on cognitive science and learning psychology that deeply inform the planning and structure of each lesson. Additionally, when necessary, I supplement lessons with extra practice to help solidify concepts and ensure long-term retention.

I am able to tutor most K-12 subjects (and many college-level courses), simplifying the search process for families looking for tutoring in several subjects (managing the schedules of several tutors is a major source of stress for families I’ve worked with). I also work seven days a week, so you can be sure that your student will get the help they need when they need it.

At this point, I prefer to have lessons online. I have been able to successfully transition most of my in-person tutoring online without any loss of quality. Online tutoring also provides much needed flexibility for families with busy schedules and allows me to schedule last-minute lessons in case of emergencies. For those still looking for in-person tutoring, please reach out and I will make it happen!

Please don’t hesitate to message me with any questions you may have or to schedule a lesson!

computing has never been so easy

He taught me more than my own professors and readings did. He broke things down for me to understand and retained a lot of information

Very well educated and explained things in a way I understood that helped me with future problems. It’s been a blessing having a great tutor for my weather and climate course.

Patient and explains very well.

Nicholas helped review for my math exam. He did a very good job at explaining everything and was very patient with me. I felt very confident taking the test. I would definitely recommend having him as a tutor. He was great.

Very prepared, experience working with students of various levels showed. Wish we found him sooner! Is definitely going to be a big asset in preparation for ACT exam.

Claudia , 3 lessons with Nicholas

Great tutor!!!

My daughter had one lesson, but I really like his approach. He assesses your child to see where their strengths and weaknesses are first. Also, he assigns homework. Great tutor!

Kim, 19 lessons with Nicholas

Pleased student

Abraham was very pleased at the end of his lesson. He really liked Nicholas and said he wanted to meet with him again. The best part was that his homework was done and it was done neatly.
